Figuring by Maria Popova

informative inspiring reflective slow-paced

5.0

Magnificent - a new favourite read has been unearthed!
Dabbling across poetry, art, music, science, astronomy, mathematics, history - the interconnectedness of all these wonderful things and the bright shining people who advanced our understanding of them. Concerned with figurings, transformations and transcendentalism, I cried many times both in sadness and wonder at humanity and the natural world. Also did I mention it's deeply queer?? This is an absolute treasure of a book and has lit a fire inside of me!
